Statement By Gary Cederstrom PDF Print E-mail
Delivered to media before the June 26, 2009 7:05 p.m. San Diego at Texas game:
 
Last night in Tampa Bay, in a game between the Rays and the Phillies, I ordered the use of instant replay to review a play that may have involved fan interference.  Because the play did not involve a home run or possible home run, we should not have used instant replay in this situation, and I’m sorry about the confusion that was raised.
 
As you know, instant replay is to be used only in boundary or fair/foul calls involving home runs or potential home runs.  I regret the error that we made.
